Highlighted Reviews

— Ashton

"If we don't have time to make the boys busy bones in the morning with peanut butter or pumpkin, this is a quick and easy alternative that we use to reward (sometimes bribe) them for going to their crate."

— Sherrie

"read the ingredients...also, this is so hard it will break your dog's teeth...what happened to the good old US made hide chews that my dog loved?"

Bottom Line

These treats are a good option for specialized use, such as crate training or special rewards, especially for large dogs who love to chew. However, if your dog is particularly picky or concerned about calorie intake, you may want to look for other options.
